pantry items....

do not buy to save or store.

buy to use and rotate.

it's sealed in poly 2 1/2 gal jugs. bet it will taste damn good if the tap goes dry.

yeah, i knew somebody would bitch about my water stored in plastic. let's see who croaks first,
you without water, or me with water stored in inert plastic bottles.

You paid $1 a gallon for drinking water that comes in a plastic container?



Why not just collect the rain that falls on your roof into a cistern? And you can keep cyling it on your garden. And you will always have thousands of gallons of fresh, renewable water, free. (I mean - if you want to pay $1 gallon, that would more than cover the thousands of gallons in your cistern).

Costco has big double walled plastic flower pots, about 22" diameter for $20. They are fairly cone shaped this year, probably hold 11 gallons. Good size for tomatoes and container gardening. We probably have a dozen. They stack fairly well if we ever need to move. They also have a good price on the bulk box of Miracle-Gro plant food (the blue stuff).

Some of this stuff is probably about to go on clearance in North America, especially the pots.

Filling up today........


This is not a true spring but a well that is 1,100 feet deep well taps into the Mount Simon-Hinckley aquifer to water that is purported to be over 30,000 years old. True fossil water! This well was drilled by the old Schmidt Brewery that is no longer in service but is now a St. Paul historical landmark.

The water has been available to the public on-and-off through the years and has recently been re-opened in early 2010. The water is brought up to a holding tank which is then dispensed to the public through a vending machine.

I would save your money. There might be better deals in European oil stocks by the time we're done. Actually, my plan is to buy a private island in the Aegean for cents on the dollar after Greece blows up.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'a')lso, remember that water is not only water, but electricity too.
